The Greatest Ocean Adventure | Sail Around the World | Clipper Round the World Yacht Race

Watch the story of how the Clipper Race began and the passion behind Sir Robin Knox-Johnston's dream to make ocean racing and the dream of sailing around the world possible for everyone. The Clipper Race is one of the biggest challenges of the natural world and an endurance test like no other. With no previous sailing experience necessary, it’s a record-breaking 40,000 nautical mile race around the world on a 70-foot ocean racing yacht. The brainchild of Sir Robin Knox-Johnston, the first person to sail solo non-stop around the world, the event is now in its twelfth edition, the Clipper 2019-20 Race. Started from London on 1 September 2019, the Clipper Race fleet will complete its circumnavigation when it returns eleven months later, in August 2020. Divided into eight legs and between 13 and 16 individual races, you can choose to complete the full circumnavigation of the globe or select individual race legs to participate in. Taking you to some of the most extraordinary destinations in the world. The Clipper Race is the only race in the world where the organisers supply a fleet of eleven identical stripped out racing yachts, each with a fully qualified skipper and first mate to safely guide the crew. Normally the domain of seasoned pros, this supreme challenge is taken on by ordinary, everyday people. Having completed a world-class training program, participants are suited and booted in the latest extreme protection gear to commence the race of their lives. - an unparalleled challenge where taxi drivers rub shoulders with chief executives, vicars mix with housewives, students work alongside bankers, and engineers team up with rugby players. The sea does not distinguish between Olympians or novices. As the teams sail around the world there is nowhere to hide - if Mother Nature throws down the gauntlet, you must be ready to face the same challenges as the pro racer. Navigate the Doldrums en route to South America, endure epic Southern Ocean storms, experience South African sunsets, face the mountainous seas of the North Pacific - and bond with an international crew creating lifelong memories before returning victorious. Applications are now open for the 2021-22 edition of the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race. Seize the moment, unleash the adventure: https://www.clipperroundtheworld.com/
